Said modification shall seek deferral of the requirement to make four lane and intersection improvements associated with SW 10th Avenue and its intersection with Lindell Boulevard commensurate with the retail use project. If deferral is not granted, it will be necessary to have compliance with DRI-DO Condition #22 with the construction contract let by March 1, 1993, and construction completed prior to issuance of occupancy permits. 5. That the number to be used for establishing the vested traffic .count for external trips shall be 10,111 trips. Thus, the remaining 391,956 sq.ft, of allowable Office Park usage shall be diminished accordingly and so reflected on the MDP. 6. The developer shall modify the intersection of Waterford Place and Linton Boulevard to accommodate dual left turns (northbound). Such modifications shall include, but not be limited to, stripping and changing of the traffic signal. 7.

The inclusion of the easements (including those pertaining to conditions #9 & #10) shall be reviewed and approved administratively by the City Engineer. If it becomes -- 7 -- necessary, per the request of the applicant, to have the plat recorded prior to being able to show the as-built infrastructure, recordation may occur upon the stipulation that a re-plat will be provided, approved, and recorded prior to the issuance of occupancy permits. 12. The developer recognizes that roadway improvements associated with the traffic generated from this project are subject to review with each new site plan consideration.

The developer shall provide fire flow calculations to determine the adequacy of the proposed water distribution system for the general retail development (retail use). These calculations must be provided prior to, or concurrent with the submission of building plans or final engineering plans. The rate of flow and pressure must be deemed acceptable by the Fire Marshall. (c) Site and Developm®nt Plan (General Retail) 14. The site plan data shall be up-dated to be consistent with the MDP. 15. The developer acknowledges that the east accessway to retail use is a temporary condition and that if it later becomes necessary to alter it, the improvements may need to be totally redesigned, removed, and reconstructed including the necessity to replat the access tract which is now being created. Further, the improvements shall comply with geometric and construction standards of the City for a street but shall not need to comply with full cross-section requirements i.e. right-of-way, two sidewalks, swale drainage. 16. The developer shall provide pedestrian ways to the intersection of S.W. 10th Avenue and Lindell Boulevard, and to Delray Crossing from the retail use. The requirement of providing pedestrian ways to Delray Crossings is acknowledged to be a requirement of the City and shall not be considered a sharing of infrastructure, pursuant to Chapter 380, Florida Statutes. 17. The developer shall design the connection of the East Accessway with S.W. 10th Avenue/Lindell Boulevard with a landscape focal point as if it were the entry to the Office Park. The design shall include landscaping and curbing in such a manner as to prohibit the practice of truck parking in the Waterford DRI. 18. The developer shall continue the landscape concept which is found along Circuit City for the length of the Waterford frontage along 1-95. - 8 - 19. The architectural elevations of the retail use shall be modified to include the use of vertical landscaping to break-up the building mass with specific attention to the rear of the building. 20. The roof plans for the retail use shall be modified to hide roof equipment and otherwise eliminate a flat roof view from 1-95. 21. That SPRAB consider special, off-site screening to be located within Waterford Village, or on portions of the Office Park, in order to mitigate inappropriate visual effects of the retail use facility from the apartment complex. 22. The Planning Department shall insure that DRI-DO Condition #7, which pertains to an Upland Habitat Buffer Zone is addressed during SFWMD review of the drainage permit modifications. 23. Modifications to the existing SFWMD permit shall be received and reviewed to insure compatibility with the approved site plan prior to issuance of building permits. If inconsistencies arise, modifications shall be approved through the site plan modification process with action by SPRAB when Board action is required. 24. Conflicts among the site and development plans (site plan, landscape plans, engineering plans) and changes thereto which may be necessary to accommodate the proposed gravity sewer system shall be resolved in favor the landscape plans and site plan. 25. That the revised site plan submittal (11/16) is referred to the Site Plan Review and Appearance Board for final approval. During such review and action, modifications to the above conditions of approval which pertain to site plan, landscape plan, and architectural elevations may be accommodated. And, further, that SPRAB shall give further review in line with its previous advisory comments as made on November 11, 1992. (d) Site and Development Plan (Office Park)~ 26. The developer shall extend the pedestrian path in the residential area from that area into, and through, the office park in accordance with the standards of the City Engineer. 27. Any bay doors shall be completely screened from off-premises ground level view from adjacent residential property. (e) Off-site traffic congestion mitigation (retail use) - 9 - 28. The City and the developer agree that at the time of passage of this ordinance the retail use causes traffic impacts to Linton Boulevard which need to be mitigated. As a part of the traffic mitigation program the City and the developer concur that SW 10th Avenue should be extended from Linton Boulevard to SW 10th Street. This analysis is subject to further review and study by the City and the ultimate mitigation plan shall be developed as the City in its sole discretion may determine. 29. It is anticipated in conjuction with the retail use at the Waterford DRI the developer shall be required to pay impact fees in the amount of approximately $ 278,000. The developer of the Waterford SAD and the City shall seek to have the Palm Beach County Road Impact Fee required by the construction of retail use given to the City for use in the extension of SW 10th Avenue from Linton Boulevard to SW 10th Street or such other traffic mitigation program the City may devise. Any monies up to $ 278,000, received from these efforts shall be deducted from the developer's obligations pursuant to Condition #30. 30. The developer of the Waterford SAD shall contribute an amount of $ 278,000 to the City of Delray Beach. Such monies shall be used for the extension of SW 10th Avenue from Linton Boulevard to SW 10th Street or such other traffic mitigation program as the City may devise. In the event that all of this funding cannot be used for said mitigation project, it may be used for other roadway related construction. This amount of $ 278,000 shall be paid when the mitigation project is let for bid or at the time of issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy for the retail use, whichever is sooner. 31. As a separate obigation to the requirements of paragraph 30 and payment of County traffic impact fees, the developer of the Waterford SAD shall contribute an amount of $ 212,000 to the City of Delra¥ Beach for its traffic mitigation program. This amount shall be used for the extension of SW 10th Avenue from Linton Boulevard to SW 10th Street or such other traffic mitigation program' as the City may devise. In the event that all of this funding cannot be used for said mitigation project, it shall be used for other roadway related construction. This amount of $ 212,000 shall be paid when the mitigation project is let for bid or at the time of issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy for retail use, whichever is sooner. Section 5.

THOMAS L~ MAYOR ATTEST = City Clerk First Reading December 1~ 1992 Second Reading December 16~ 1992 - 11 - MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS FROM: CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM ~ ~/~ - MEETING OF DECEMBER 16. 1993 QRDINANCE NQ, 64-92 DATE: DECEMBER 11, 1992 At the December 8th regular meeting a public hearing was held on this ordinance at which time the Commission deferred final action in order to allow several of the outstanding items associated with this project to be addressed. This is an ordinance modifying the Waterford Special Activities District and Development of Regional Impact Development Order in order to accommodate a Builder's Square retail use south of Linton Boulevard between 1-95 and S.W. 10th Avenue. The Planning and Zoning Board at their November 16th meeting held a public hearing. Several individuals spoke in opposition to the project. Following the public hearing, a motion to approve the application failed on a 2-4 vote. Subsequently, the Board, on a 4-2 vote, forwarded a recommendation that the requested modifications to the SAD and DRI-DO be denied based upon 17 findings pertaining to inconsistency with the Comprehensive Plan, performance standards in the LDRs, and compliance with conditions of the DRI-DO. Also, as a part of that action, the Board recommended that in the event Commission approval is granted, 26 specific conditions of approval be affixed to such action. A detailed staff report is attached as backup material for this item. At the December 1st regular meeting the Commission voted to approve Ordinance No. 64-92 on first reading on a 3-2 vote (Dr. Alperin and Commissioner Ellingsworth dissenting). Recommend consideration of Ordinance No. 64-92. LAW OF'KICIrS BOOSE CASE:Y CIKLIN LUBITZ HARTENS MCBANE: & O'CQNNE:LL A FIAPlTNERIH111 INcI-UDING PF~OlrlE~I~IONA/ ASitOClATIONI BtqU(::~. G.

City of Delray Beach ~:~, 200 N. W. Firs~ Avenue · Delray Beach, Florida 33444 Re= Waterford/Ordinance No. 64-92 Dear Jeff= I have reviewed ~e Ordinance which was passed on first reading last night. The copy that I received duplicated Page 3 wi~ Page 4. They were identical, so I ass~e one of those pages should be eliminated, and ~e Ordinance rendered. In addition, in Section 3, I believe ~e dates reflec~e~ in S~paragraph (a) and (c) should be Dece~er 8th, ra~er ~an Dec,er In Section 4, Paragraph 3, the reference should be to Delray Crossings Shopping Center~ not Delray S~are. In Section 13, I have been advised by bo~ Kimley-Ho~ and Dick Sherbets ~at ~e East access way should not be re~ired to meet street standards. ~ copy of ~is letter I ~ re~esting ~at David Kovacs, or s~eone from the City Engineer's office, cogent about that issue. In Section 14, as I previously stated, ~ere is a problem providing pedestrian ways to ~lray Crossings. ~e provision of ~e pedestrian ways could be considered as li~ing Waterford and Delray Crossings. We have assured ~e Depa~ment of Co~ity Affairs that we will not do so, and have gone to grea~ len~hs to insure ~at ~e projects will not be li~ed. There is an exception in Chapter 380, however, which states ~at if ~e re~iremen= is one of ~e City gove~ent, ~a~ it will not be considered as a sharing of infra-st~cture. In order to resolve this issue, perhaps we can ad~ ~e following sentence to Section 14= Jeffrey Kurtz, Esquire, City Attorney December 2, 1992 Page 2 The requirement of providing pedestrian ways to Delray Crossings is acknowledged to be a requirement of the City, and shall not be considered a sharing of infra-structure, pursuant to Chapter 380, Florida Statutes. The foregoing are my comments regarding the SAD Ordinance modification. I assume that at some time there will also be a resolution amending the Development Order. When that is prepared, I would like to have a copy so that I may review it. Thanks for your cooperation.

T~O~AS LY~C~ MAYOR Alison Har=y City Clerk First Reading December i, 1992 Second Reading December 8, 1992 MEMORANDUM TO: MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSIONERS FROM: CITY MANAGERL'/~t SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM ~/~/~ - MEETING OF DECEMBER 81 1992 ORDINANCE NO. 64-92 DATE: December 2, 1992 This is second reading of an ordinance modifying the Waterford Special Activities District and Development of Regional Impact Development Order in order to accommodate a Builder's Square retail use south of Linton Boulevard between 1-95 and S.W. 10th Avenue. The Planning and Zoning Board at their November 16th meeting held a public hearing. Several individuals spoke in opposition to the project. Following the public hearing, a motion to approve the application failed on a 2-4 vote. Subsequently, the Board, on a 4-2 vote, forwarded a recommendation that the requested modifications to the SAD and DRI-DO be denied based upon 17 findings pertaining to inconsistency with the Comprehensive Plan, performance standards in the LDRs, and compliance with conditions of the DRI-DO. Also, as a part of that action, the Board recommended that in the event Commission approval is granted, 26 specific conditions of approval be affixed to such action. A detailed staff report is attached as backup material for this item. At the December 1st regular meeting the Commission voted to approve Ordinance No. 64-92 on first reading on a 3-2 vote (Dr. Alperin and Commissioner Ellingsworth dissenting). Recommend consideration of Ordinance No. 64-92 on second and final reading. TO:~~ D~ID T.~~ HARDEN, CITY MANAGER FROM: ~D'A~D J. K~V~CS, DIRER DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING SUBJECT: MEETING OF DECEMBER 8~ 1992 2ND READING~ SAD MODIFICATION FOR WA~ERFO~ ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION: The action requested of the City Commission is that of approval of the enacting ordinance for modifications to the Waterford SAD. BACKGROUND: First reading of this ordinance was conducted on December 1st following a public hearing. The ordinance which was presented at that time had been modified (from the draft ordinance which was reviewed on November 24th) to reflect a different format (per the City Attorney) and to accommodate the deletion of a few conditions which were no longer applicable (based upon preliminary review of the most recent MDP and site plan). The applicant's attorney has reviewed the proposed ordinance and has requested a few changes (see Ciklin's letter of December 2nd). Those requests will be accommodated. Since there were no other comments about the ordinance, it is presumed that their substantive aspects are acceptable, except as they may be modified by the applicant's proposal for traffic congestion mitigation i.e. the 10th Avenue Extension proposal. As of the writing of this documentation, the traffic mitigation proposal has not been presented nor has there been a formal meeting on the subject. Once such a proposal is received, it will be evaluated and additional conditions of approval, as appropriate, will be recommended by the Administration. There are several other agenda items which pertain to the overall project. Each has its own cover memorandum. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Pending submission and acceptance of a traffic mitigation program, approval of the ordinance (as it will be modified to accommodate the traffic mitigation program).

First Avenue ' Delray Beach, Florida 33444 Re: Waterford/Ordinance No. 64-92 Dear Jeff: I have reviewed the Ordinance which was passed on first reading last night. The copy that I received duplicated Page 3 with Page 4. They were identical, so I ass~e one of those pages should be eliminated, and the Ordinance rendered. In addition, in Section 3, I believe the dates reflected in S~paragraph (a) and (c) should be Dece~er 8th, rather than Dece~er 1st. In Section 4, Paragraph 3, the reference should be to Delray Crossings Shopping Center; not Delray S~are. In Section 13, I have been advised by both Kimley-Horn and Dick Sheremeta that the East access way should not be re~ired to meet street standards. By copy of this letter I am re~esting that David Kovacs, or someone from the City Engineer's office, cogent about that issue. In Section 14, as I previously stated, there is a problem providing pedestrian ways to Delray Crossings. The provision of the pedestrian ways could be considered as linking Waterford and Delray Crossings. We have assured the Department of Community Affairs that we will not do so, and have gone to great lengths to insure that the projects will not be linked. There is an exception in Chapter 380, however, which states that if the retirement is one of the city gover~ent, that it will not be considered as a sharing of infra-structure. In order to resolve this issue, perhaps we can add the following sentence to Section 14: Jeffrey Kurtz, Esquire, city Attorney December 2, 1992 Page 2 The requirement of providing pedestrian ways to Delray Crossings is acknowledged to be a requirement of the City, and shall not be considered a sharing of infra-structure, pursuant to Chapter 380, Florida Statutes. The foregoing are my comments regarding the SAD Ordinance modification. I assume that at some time there will also be a resolution amending the Development Order. When that is prepared, I would like to have a copy so that I may review it. Thanks for your cooperation. ~lklin AJC/ag O26-3156 cc: David Kovacs (407/243-3774) Tom McMurrain (364-9562) OP.

THOMAS LYNCH MAYOR ATTEST: Alison Harry City Clerk First Reading December 1, 1992 Second Reading December 8, 1992 PROPOSAL PERTAINING TO WATERFORD SAD MODIFICATION AND MITIGATION OF TRAFFIC CONGESTION: Written by David J. Kovacs on Tuesday, December 8, 1992, following discussions among the agent for the Waterford SAD modification, the City Attorney, the Director of Planning, planning staff and applicant representatives. Applicant's Proposal: 1. To use best efforts to have the County credit the $278,000 County Traffic Impact Fee requirement to the City for use in constructing an alternative traffic route (SW 10th Avenue). 2. To contribute $212,000 cash toward the construction of the SW 10th Avenue extension. Payable at the time of letting the SW 10th Avenue construction project or prior to obtaining a C.O., whichever occurs first. 3. The developer will provide the design, construction, and construction management services necessary for the SW 10th Avenue extension, if so desired by the City. Such services will be paid for from the above funds. Congestion Mitiqation Proposal: The following proposal has been prepared by the City Administration as being a viable means to alleviate traffic congestion at Wallace Drive and Linton Boulevard. 1. Phase I~ 10th Avenue Extension: A. Construction of a two lane extension of SW 10th Avenue from Linton Boulevard to SW llth Street with expanded intersection improvements at Linton; and, a north approach to llth Street. Right-of-way needs: Adequate width to accommodate an eventual four lane road section. Linear frontage is required as follows: a 1,280 feet by Wallace* b 1,345 feet by. Boose/Haggerty (The Groves)* c 195 feet by Realty firm (HRS site) d 175 feet by Haggerty (west side) e 310 feet by four separate properties f. a 75' x 100' parcel immediately north of the intersection of llth Street and 10th Avenue g. two 90' x 100' residuals of parcels (* indicates owners with development proposals which are under consideration) Construction Costs: B. The construction includes a full five lane intersection where SW 10th Avenue meets Linton; a taper to four lanes in the vicinity of the intersection with Dixie (Southridge); and then a taper to two lanes northward. Right-of-way needs: To be obtained from Wallace as a part of a project which is now under review. The right-of-way is for the ultimate, expanded intersection. Construction Costs: Unknown at present. However, the Wallace project is required to construct an "interim" level of improvements. The SW 10th Avenue extension project would necessitate the installation of the full improvements. C. This phase includes a connection of SW llth Street, from SW 10th Avenue to Wallace Drive. Right-of-way needs: 240' x 25' from Haggerty. Involves a rental housing unit. A residual lot of 10,300 sq.ft, with only a 40' depth is created; thus, a full taking may be required. Construction Costs: $42,000 2. Phase II~ 10th Avenue Extension: The construction includes a full intersection where SW 10th Avenue meets SW 10th Street and includes the elimination of the current Wallace Drive intersection with SW 10th Street. A. Intersection of SW 10th Avenue and SW 10th Street involves improvements to SW 10th Street and the new SW 10th Avenue from where the full intersection tapes to a two lane street. Right-of-way needs: 25,500 sq.ft, from one (or two) property owners with reconfiguration of the balance of their holdings. They are eligible for D.O.E. funding. Construction Costs: Unknown at this time. However, they are eligible for D.O.E. funding. B. Construction of a terminus for Wallace Drive as it approaches SW 10th Street. A cul-de-sac or other suitable alternative is necessary. Provision must be to accommodate lots of record which need access. Access to the corner grocery store will be restricted. Provisions are necessary to accommodate on-site parking. - 2 - Right-of-way needs: Ail work is anticipated to be within the existing right-of-way of Wallace Drive and in the above taking (SW 10th/10th intersection). Construction Costs: $ 100,000. This amount may not be eligible for D.O.E. funding. 3. Wallace Drive Closure: The overall project involves the closure (abandonment) of Wallace Drive as it approaches Linton Boulevard. Left turn in, right turn in, and right turn out movements from the automobile dealerships will be accommodated. It is anticipated that this closure will be required in exchange for use of County Road Impact Fees. It may be possible to accommodate the existing public street if the termination at SW 10th Street occurs. If the public street remains, it may do so with or without an exiting left turn and through traffic movements. Right-of-way needs: If there is a change, right-of-way will be abandoned. Right-of-way for an extension of Georgia Street, from Wallace Drive to SW 10th Avenue, may be required in exchange for the abandonment area. Construction Costs: Construction costs will be at the expense of the benefitting property owner. Assessment of Developer's Proposal with respect to the Traffic Congestion Mitigation Program: 1. The developer's proposal is a direct contribution of $212,000. Any cost overruns are at the expense of the City. Any cost savings benefit to the City and can be used on Phase II improvements. 2. The decision to obtain the $278,000 rests with the Board of County Commissioners. The requirement to close the approach of Wallace Drive to Linton, may be a condition precedent to allowing municipal use of the $278,000. Also, it may be appropriate to cQndition project approval upon the granting of the use of the $278,000. Under the developer's proposal, if that amount is not provided, the CITY would need to provide the funding -- or abandon the 10th Avenue extension at this point in time. 3. It may be appropriate to make the City's commitment to close Wallace Drive as a pre-condition of accepting the developer's proposal. - 3 - 4. Costs for right-of-way acquisition come from the $212,000 contribution and from the $278,000 credit for Road Impact Fees. If either Boose, Haggerty, or Wallace do not participate with the donation of right-of-way, there are not sufficient funds available and the CITY would need to provide the funding -- or abandon the 10th Avenue extension at this point in time. 5. Since we are seeking Road Impact Fee credits from the County, the developer suggested that we also seek repayment of funds which have recently been paid by the theater, Wendy's, Arby's, Checkers, Taco Bell, and Tire Kingdom. This may add another $90,000 to $110,000 to fund the acquisition and construction project. - 4 - WORKING LIST OF ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS TO BE CONSIDERED IN ENACTMENT OF THE WATERFORD SAD MODIFICATION, CITY COMMISSION CONSIDERATION ON DECEMBER 8, 1992 Initial Draft ... DJK:12/06/92 Revised Draft ... DJK:12/08/92 1. Realiqnment of Lindell: SITUATION: There is concern that the improved 10th Avenue roadway and direct linkage to Builders Square will exacerbate traffic flow through Tropic Palms. Also, with only 350,000 sq.ft, of Office Park potential on the remaining 35 acres, there is a potential for redesign of the traffic entryway without adversely affecting the developer's ability to accommodate the vested floor area. CONDITION: With further development of the Office Park portion of the SAD/DRI, the realignment of Lindell for the purpose of de-emphasizing it as a collector road shall be explored. An option to be considered is "T"ing Lindell into a SW 10th Avenue extension within the Waterford SAD/DRI. 2. Fundinq for a SW 10th Avenue Extension~ north of Linton: SITUATION: The extension of SW 10th Avenue, north of Linton, and its ultimate connection with SW 10th Street is assumed to be proposed as a mitigation to unacceptable traffic congestion at the intersection of Waterford Drive/ Linton/Wallace Drive. A portion of the funding is assumed to be the use of County Traffic/Road Impact Fees. Other aspects of the project include dedication of rights-of-way and construction by others. CONDITION: The developer of the Waterford SAD shall contribute the amount of $ 212,000 to the SW 10th Avenue extension project. This amount shall be paid when the extension project is let for bid or at the time of issuance of the Certificate of Occupancy for Builders Square, whichever is sooner. CONDITION: Approval must be obtained from the Board of Palm Beach County Commissioners that the Traffic/Road Impact Fees which are assessed against Builders Square can, and shall, be used for the establishment of an extension of SW 10th Avenue, north of Linton Boulevard. This approval must be granted prior to the issuance of building permits for Builders Square. CONDITION: Right-of-way for that portion of the 10th Avenue extension between Linton Boulevard and SW llth Street shall be dedicated to the City of Delray Beach, or assurance that it will be obtained prior to construction; and that this assurance shall be obtained via agreements from property represented by Haggerty, Boose, and Wallace prior to the issuance of building permits for Builders Square. 3. Closure of Wallace Drive at Linton Boulevard: SITUATION: The abandonment of Wallace Drive within the confines of the Wallace automobile dealerships is assumed to be a part of the traffic congestion mitigation proposal. This action is dependent upon the City completing a new intersection with the SW 10th Avenue extension and SW 10th Street. This intersection improvement will follow the date of occupancy for Builders Square; thus, it is necessary to have assurance that this portion of the mitigation program can be accommodated. CONDITION: That prior to the issuance of any building permits for Builders Square, the City of Delray Beach shall have conducted abandonment proceedings for that portion of Wallace Drive which exists between properties used for the various Wallace automobile dealerships. And, that such an abandonment is approved. And, that an agreement (or other suitable assurance) is executed between the City and Wallace that, at the expense of Wallace, improvements will be made to the current approach of Wallace Drive to Linton Boulevard in such a manner to prohibit a southbound left turn movement, a southbound crossing movement, and to prohibit the potential for a vehicle which is making a right turn to attempt to cross through the intersection of Waterford Place and Linton Boulevard. 4. Intersection of Lindell and SW 10th Avenue: SITUATION: This intersection, pursuant to the DRI-DO is to be completely constructed, to its ultimate section at this time. The developer intends to seek a modification to this DRI-DO requirement. The submitted site plan does not show the ultimate improvement. Thus, the site plan submittal does not comply with the DRI-DO requirement. CONDITION: That DRI-DO Condition # shall be modified prior to the effect of deferring the four lane and full intersection requirement at SW 10th Avenue and Lindell Boulevard and this shall be accomplished by March 1, 1993; or, a site plan modification shall be submitted for review and approval with said submittal addressing the full intersection improvement, modifications to the east access road (as shown on the current site plan) and consideration of a relocation of Lindell Boulevard (as discussed in condition #1, above). - 2 - 5. Temporary Condition pertaining to the east accesswa¥: SITUATION: The east accessway to Builders Square (from Lindell) does not meet full street standards. The developer has acknowledged that the roadway location is of a temporary nature. Thus, upon further development it may be necessary to replat and reconstruct. This situation needs to be formally acknowledged. CONDITION: The developer acknowledges that the east accessway to Builders Square is a temporary condition and that if it later becomes necessary to alter it, the improvements may need to be totally redesigned, removed, and reconstructed including the necessity to replat the access tract which is now being created. Further, the interim improvement shall comply with geometric and construction standards of the City for a roadway but shall not need to comply with full cross-section requirements of a public street (i.e. right-of-way, two sidewalks, swale drainage). DJK/T:SADXCOND.DOC - 3 - PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM TO: DELRAY BEACH CITY COMMISSION FROM: JEFFREY S. KURTZ, CITY ATTORNEY DATE: DECEMBER 1, 1992 SUBJECT: ADDITIONAL CONDITION OF APPROVAL~ WATERFORD SAD PERTAINING TO IMPACT FEE Pursuant to direction from Commissioner Alperin, the following language is provided for consideration. This language relates to Condition #20 of the DRI-DO which establishes a special impact fee for the Waterford SAD/DRI. The developer shall contribute an additional $.50 square foot for all office space and $1.55 per square foot of retail use which is to be paid to the City of Delray Beach at the time of issuance of building permits for such uses. The funds shall be used by the City for roadway improvements within the impact area. Impact area is hereby defined as any roadway located within one mile of the perimeter of the Waterford SAD/DRI. The original condition dealt only with office floor area but also addressed traffic impacts. With the deletion of office floor area, and hence resources to mitigate traffic impacts, it is appropriate to recapture the original commitment of funding for traffic impact mitigation.

Builders Square Modification to the Waterford/Delint SAD Represented by Thomas McMurrian. He stated that the office and hotel portion has been deleted from the plan. (Mrs. Oster stepped down). The "Builders Square" will be located behind the center. The members felt the plan was an improvement. Mr. Sowards suggested reversing the building at the entrance and the exit. Something else besides chain link was suggested. Regarding a reduction in the amount of parking, the members felt comparable situations should be need to be presented to the board. The treatment was complementary to the surrounding center. As for the parking concerns, he requested the applicant confer with the traffic engineer; the members support the site plan. Seconded by Mr. Mouw with the vote as follows: Rett Talbot Yes Jess Sowards Yes Rick Mouw Yes Mark Marsh Yes B. Checkers S.E.

The single driveway was questioned. It was recommended that the poles be lowered and that the recycling area be indicated. C. Review of Submission Items for the November 18, 1992 Meeting. Regarding Arby's, staff had some concerns with the architectural elevations. It was suggested that the colors be reversed for a more subdued image.

HARDEN, CITY MANAGER FROM: DAVID J. KOVACS, DIRECTOR DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING SUBJECT: MEETING OF DECEMBER 1, 1992 FIRST READING~ WATERFORD SAD MODIFICATION ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION: The action requested of the City Commission is that of approval of the enacting ordinance which will accommodate proposed changes to the Waterford SAD. A public hearing has been advertised for this item. BACKGROUND: All the background and analysis was provided at last weeks Commission review of this item. It is the intent, at this meeting, to obtain public testimony; conduct Commission discussion; and take a position on the proposal. Correspondence: Attached to this documentation are letters received prior to November 24, 1992. Any additional correspondence will be entered in the record at the public hearing. SPRAB Review: The Mayor asked for information pertaining to the previous SPRAB review. Attached is a copy of the minutes from their meeting at which this review occurred. Also, the highlights of their review are found on Pages VII-4. I note that the purpose of the SPRAB review was advisory to the Planning and Zoning Board, prior to P&Z consideration of the SAD. Attached is the cover sheet which went to SPRAB. It is clear that the intent of the SPRAB review was cursory and was not meant to be the type of review which is preceeded by a staff analysis and code compliance. I also note that subsequent to that SPRAB review, the site plan has been changed. We have set December 16th as a time when the applicant can appear before SPRAB for "preliminary" review comments which would be more in keeping with the aesthetic judgements which that Board is to provide. We are scheduled for final SPRAB action on January 13th at which time coordination of engineering plans, landscaping plans, the final MDP, and site plan will be achieved and conflicts can be resolved by SPRAB action. The SPRAB role in this project, since it is a SAD, is that of ensuring the qualitative aspects of the City's standards are met and not "approval" or "denial" of the site plan in the normal fashion. City Commission Documentation First Reading, Waterford SAD Modification Page 2 Home Depot Traffic Study: As of this writing, we are obtaining a copy of the traffic study associated with the Home Depot in Boynton Beach. We will provide comments regarding the relationship of that report to actual resulting conditions (per Commissioner Randolph's direction). Traffic Impacts on Linton Boulevard: We are in contact with the County regarding representations made by the applicant's Transportation Management Engineer regarding improvements and traffic flow on Linton Boulevard. Also, our Traffic Engineer will be prepared to comment at the public hearing; however, at this time we are awaiting written information from the applicant's consultants. S.W. 10th Avenue Issue: The suggestions made by Commissioner Mouw will be a focus of discussion at the Planning and Zoning Board meeting of Monday, November 30th. A report of that discussion will be presented at the public hearing. RECOMMENDED ACTION: It is inaDDropriate to proceed to 2nd reading (another public hearing) if it is the intent of the Commission to deny the request. If denial is to occur it should occur at this time. If approval is to occur, the ordinance should be passed on first reading and, at second reading, the focus will be upon insuring the ordinance is technically correct with respect to conditions of approval and the project description. Attachment: * MDP and site plan reductions * Letters of support and opposition DJK/CCWATER3.DOC SITE PLAN REVIEW AND APPEARANCE BOARD AGENT: Thomas T. McMurrian PROJECT NAME: Builder's Square PROJECT LOCATION: South of Linton Boulevard and east of 1-95, at the southern end of Waterford Drive. I. ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD: The item before the Board is that of making a recommendation on the site plan, landscape plan, and elevations for a proposed Builder's Square. I I. BACKGROUND: This proposal involves the modification of the existing approved SAD (Special Activities District) for the Waterford/Delint development. The development was approved as a mixed use multi-family, hotel, and office project, of which only the multi-family portion has been constructed. The requested modification is to replace the hotel and part of the office portion of the development with a single purpose retail center. SADs are established and subsequently modified by an ordinance which is processed as a rezoning. Pursuant to LDR Section 4.4.25 (C)(1), a complete site and development plan is to be processed concurrent with the rezoning. ThUs, formal review of the site plan, landscaping, and elevations is by the Planning and Zoning Board and the City Commission. III. REQUIRED ACTION The Waterford/Delint SAD modification is scheduled to be heard by the Planning and Zoning Board at its meeting of November 16, 1991. Prior to that meeting, SPRAB is being asked to review and comment on the technical aspects of the i~tte plan, landscape plan, and elevations. Comments and recommendations made by SPRAB will be advisory in nature, and will be !'~cluded in the staff report that is to be presented to the Planning and Zoning Board on this item.

Master Development Plan for a number of reasons, the following are a few of those reasons. 1. It totally changes the original plan for the area and this type of development will adversely affect the residential feel of the immediate neighborhood. 2. It will increase both customer traffic and heavy truck traffic on $.W. loth Street and L~ndell Blvd., both feeder roads to our development and the single family neighborhoods. It severely dilutes the opportunities for development of offices and hobals which in turn reduces the future of mo~e professional eml~loyment in the area. 4. It increases the commercial vs. residential percentage in the m~cro market yet adds no prospects for rentals or purchases of residence. $. It will increase the incidence of parking of semi-trucks on the land ad,cent to our property. The owner of Waterford Village Apartments is Metropolitan Life Insurance _ Oompany, fo~ whom we act es managee and ~n that capacity we have been asked to write to you to express their opposition and concerns to the proposed development.

NO. -92 CITY COMMISSION DOCUMENTATION FROM: DAVID J. KOVACS, DIRECTOR DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING AND ZONING SUBJECT: MEETING OF NOVEMBER 24, 1992 AMENDMENT TO THE WATERFORD SAD AND DRI-DO ACTION REQUESTED OF THE COMMISSION: The action requested of the City Commission is that of approval on first reading of an ordinance which amends previous approvals for the Waterford SAD and the Waterford (DELINT) Development of Regional Impact - Development Order (DRI-DO). The project involves the addition of the use of "Retail Use" to each approval (SAD & DRI-DO) and modifies land use arrangements and allocations. The project will result in the construction of a Builders Square retail facility at the southern end of Waterford Place (south of Circuit City and Target). BACKGROUND: The background on this item is long and detailed. Please refer to the Planning and Zoning Staff Report which has been provided under separate cover for such details. Following the conclusion of the Planning and Zoning Board hearing of November 16th, the resulting "project", as proposed by the applicant, is: * The addition of "general retail use" as an allowable use. * A change in the Master Development Plan (MDP) to accommodate general retail use in a 136,000 sq.ft, single tenant building. * A reduction of 419,780 sq.ft. (52%) of allowable floor area within the Office Park resulting in a remain~A of 391,956 sq.ft, along with a reduction in land area allocated to the Office Park. * Addition of a new access from the general retail site to the intersection of Lindell Boulevard and S.W. 10th Avenue. City Commission Documentation Amendment to the Waterford SAD and DRI-Do Page 2 * Modification of the intersection of Waterford Place and Linton Boulevard by implementing northbound, dual left-turns with exclusive left-turn traffic signalization. * On-site development pursuant to a revised site plan exhibit, submitted at the Planning and Zoning Board hearing of November 16th. PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD CONSIDERATION: The Planning and Zoning Board formally reviewed this item at its meeting of November 16, 1992. Additional information presented by the applicant was accepted at that time. This information is attached under the letter dated November 16, 1992, by Alan Ciklin. Also, a revised MDP and site plan was presented. During the public hearing, seven individuals representing various interests spoke in opposition. Other than the applicant, there was no testimony in support. Following the public hearing, a motion to approve the application failed on a 2-4 vote. Thereafter, Board Members expressed the general feelings on the matter (Note: draft minutes of the public hearing will be included in the December 1st documentation). Currie: Felt that the applicant is entitled to development within the limits of what is vested and that the revised (11/16) plan exhibits provide a product which is much more acceptable than the previous submission. Kiselewski: Felt that the impact of the change on the balance of the SAD/DRI is not acceptable. She noted that the change reduces the commerce (Office Park) potential by more than 50%. She felt that accommodating the request is short-sighted. Kellerman: Stated opposition to the proposed use in the selected location, felt there were more appropriate locations. He felt that the requested change was contrary to the vision which is held out for the City. Naron: Commented about the overall negative situation on Linton Boulevard; noted the lack of participation by the proposed user; and felt strongly about traffic congestion in the vicinity. Felner: Felt that one needs to recognize and deal with the rights which a property owner has; noted that there would be a significant reduction of peak hour traffic impacts; that the more than 350,000 sq.ft, of office which remains offers a viable land use; and that the use is compatible with adjacent uses. Beer: Felt that the proposal was not consistent with community direction and directions in the Comprehensive Plan; and, that the change is not compatible with achieving the overall objectives of the initial SAD. City Commission Documentation Amendment to the Waterford SAD and DRI-Do Page 3 Then on a 4-2 vote, the Board forwarded a recommendation that the requested modifications to the SAD and DRI-DO be denied based upon 17 findings pertaining to inconsistency with the Comprehensive Plan, performance standards in the LDRs, and compliance with conditions of the DRI-DO. (Those findings, A through Q, are attached.) Also, as a part of the above action, the Board recommended that, in the event approval is granted, 26 specific conditions of approval be fixed to any such action. (Those recommended conditions are contained within the ordinance which is before the Commission for first reading consideration.) RECOMMENDED ACTION: Manner of Proceeding: Entertain presentations by the staff and the applicant relative to the specific considerations before the Commission. Then, engage in Commission discussion directed toward gaining a good understanding of those items. Also, if any further information is desired ore'rem is to be addressed prior to the public hearing, direction to that effect should be made. Public comment should be deferred to the public hearing which is scheduled for December 1st at 7:00 p.m. By motion, approve the ordinance on first reading and proceed to the public hearing and second reading. Attachments: * P&Z Staff Report & Documentation of November 16th has been provided under separate cover. * Listing of FINDINGS FOR DENIAL and Recommended Conditions of Approval, if approval is granted. * Reductions of the revised site plan and revised MDP as presented to the Board on 11/16. * P&Z Memorandum Staff Report, 11/16 identifying changes to the previously distributed staff report. * Ciklin letter of November 16, 1992, and supporting material. DJK/CCBSSAD.DOC LISTING OF REVISED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL AND REVISED FINDINGS FOR DENIAL FOR THE WATERFORD SAD/DRI MODIFICATION AS RECOMMENDED BY THE PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD Following are the recommended Conditions of Approval, if approval is granted, and Findings for Denial of the request for modification to the WATERFORD DRI/SAD. These recommendations were made by the Delray Beach Planning and Zoning Board, following a public hearing held on November 16, 1992. RECOMMENDATION OF DENIAL On a 4-2 vote, the Board recommend to the City Commission of the City of Delray Beach that the petitions for modification of the Waterford SAD and the Waterford DRI-DO be denied based upon the following determinations and findings: A. The requested modification is not consistent with the designations of the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) in that Commerce is the underlying land use designation and that designation does not accommodate a stand-alone general (retail) commercial land use. Hence, a required finding pursuant to LDR Section 3.1.1(A) cannot be made. B. The requested modification is not consistent with Section 4.4.25(A) which requires that uses allowed under SAD zoning must be deemed consistent with the underlying land use designation on the Future Land Use Map. C. The performance standard found in LDR Section 3.3.2(D) which requires compatibility with adjacent properties is not met. D. The requested modification is not consistent with Objective A-1 of the Future Land Use Element in that it will not provide a complimentary land use to the balance of the SAD/DRI. E. The requested modification is not consistent with Objective A-1 of the Future Land Use Element in that it does fulfill remaining land use needs of the community. F. The requested modification is not consistent with Policy A-1.4 of the Future Land Use Element in that it promotes, instead of discourages, the reduction of land available for Commerce land use. G. A sufficient reason for accommodating the use change, as required by LDR Section 2.4.5(D)(5), has not been provided. H. Concurrency with traffic level of service standards at the intersection of Linton Boulevard and Waterford Place will be reduced to an unacceptable level. I. Sufficient on-site parking based upon the requirements of LDR Section 4.6.9(C)(3)(a) has not been provided or otherwise accommodated. J. Failure to make the required finding pursuant to LDR Section 2.4.5(F)(§), Site Plan finding of compatibility, harmony, and impact on nearby properties and City as a whole. K. DRI-DO Condition of Approval #22 which calls for the four laning of S.W. 10th Avenue by December 31, 1992, has not been complied with, nor will it be complied with. L. DRI-DO Condition of Approval #19 which calls for a determination of level of service on the 1-95 access ramps to be made by Florida Department of Transportation prior to December 31, 1992, has not been complied with, nor is it likely to be complied with. M. Information and action required by DRI-DO Condition of Approval #15 pertaining to energy conservation has not been complied with. N. That the project has not continued to completion in accordance with the provisions of Condition #2 of the DRI-DO. O. That the Planning and Zoning Board finds the proposed change is unacceptable as it relates to the entire development and, thus, pursuant to F.S. Chapter 380.06, Section (19)(g)2, the requested change must be denied. P. Failure, of submitted materials, to meet provisions of LDR Section 3.3.3, Standards for Site Plan Actions. Q. Failure to maintain a no net increase in traffic generation and hence a violation of the County Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance in that the "no net increase" amount is 10,042 as calculated in the December, 1991, Traffic Study submitted by the applicant. - 2 - RECOMMENDED CONDITIONS~ IF APPROVAL IS GRANTED In the event that the City Commission, deems appropriate to approve the requested changes, the Board has recommended that certain conditions of approval be applied.

DJK/BSREVISE.DOC - 5 - PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD MEMORANDUM STAFF REPORT MEETING OF: NOVEMBER 16, 1992 AGENDA ITEM: III.A. Modification to Waterford SAD/DRI ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD: The item before the Board is that of making recommendations on a series of items pertaining to proposed modifications to the Waterford SAD/DRI. Please refer to the complete staff report for a full description of the situation. BACKGROUND: At your worksession of November 9th, a presentation was made by the applicant and review of the formal staff report was made by the the Director. Subsequent to that worksession, the staff report has had further review and a few changes are to be made. As of the writing of the memo-report, no additional information has been provided by the applicant. CHANGES/MODIFICATIONS TO THE STAFF REPORT: Minor/Technical Corrections: 1. On the cover sheet and where appropriate throughout, the size of the territory under consideration for the change is approximately 11.71 acres (instead of 11.25). 2. Page VII-3, under Preliminary Engineering, ADD to the last paragraph: "Flowage easements should also be provided from the retail parcel, through the lake system, to the final outfall". 3. Page VI I- 3, under Preliminary Engineering, ADD new paragraphs: "Storm water calculations have not been submitted. These calculations identify the elevation of the 3, 10, and 100 year storm elevations in addition to establishing pipe sizes, and describing the amount of runoff and previous/impervious areas. The finished floor elevations, shown on the site plan is 14.5. This elevation must be 18" above the crown of the adjacent public road (Waterford Place) or above the 100 year storm elevation. In the absence of storm water calculations, the finished floor elevation appears too iow to meet the 18" criteria. It appears that said elevation should be approximately 17.1'".

There is a difference in that Condition #14 requires SPRAB action, whereas, Condition #27 required Planning and Zoning Board action. 2. Page IX-5, ADD a NEW Condition #27: The Planning Department shall insure that consideration to DRI-DO Condition #7, which pertains to an Upland Habitat Buffer Zone is addressed during SFWMD review of the drainage permit modification. 3. Page IX-5, ADD a NEW Condition #28: The main traffic aisle into the Builders Square parking lot shall taper from the width of 36', at the north entry, to the standard of 24'-26'. 4. Page IX-5, ADD a NEW Condition #29: The intersection of Waterford Place and Linton Boulevard shall be modified to accommodate dual left turns (northbound). Such modifications shall included, but not be limited to, stripping and change of the traffic signal; and shall be at the expense of the applicant. 5. Page IX-5, ADD a NEW Condition #30: Prior to the issuance of building permits, permits for the necessary modifications to the intersection of Waterford Place and Linton Boulevard shall be obtained from Palm Beach County. P&Z Staff Report Modification to Waterford SAD/DRI Page 3 6. Page IX-7, ADD a NEW Finding "P": Failure, of submitted materials, to meet provisions of LDR Section 3.3.3, Standards for Site Plan Actions. 7. Page IX-l, ADD the following, after the second paragraph in the introductory material: "With respect to the staff recommendation that DRI-DO Conditions #2, #15, #lSA, and #19 be modified, these items should only be addressed at the request of the aDDlicant. Each of the recommended changes is to the benefit of the applicant and, if approved, would decrease the potential for further problems in completing the proposed project. Such a request can be made at the meeting, but it should also be formally documented by a written request." RECOMMENDED ACTION: See Part X, Recommended Action, portion of the formal staff report (copy of Part X is attached). Attachment: * Part X, Recommended Action Report prepare~_ Reviewed by DJK/T:PZWATER.DOC PART X RECOMMENDED ACTION The following position/opinion was arrived at after careful study of the submission and its evaluation against the policies and land use review requirements of the City. It is also based upon the fact that the requested change is not simply that of addition of a use under the City's SAD modification procedures, but is a change of use that is considered as a rezoning; along with a modification to a DRI which is governed by conditions of its attendant Development Order. It is the Director's opinion that the proposed change is not consistent with applicable policies and direction of the City's adopted Comprehensive Plan. The proposed change will have a substantial negative impact upon the level of service at an intersection, and in a manner, which is not vested under the broad application of traffic vesting which is otherwise applicable to a previously approved DRI. Further, applicable provisions of the DRI-DO have not been met nor have provisions been made to comply with them. Finally, based upon the submitted materials, the proposed modifications are to be Justified solely upon economic determinations of the property owner and are not based upon any sound land use planning or community development principles. In addition to the broad powers and authorities which the City has in respect to action on this item, F.S. Chapter 380.06, Section (19)(g)2 provides that "if the local government determines that the proposed change as it relates to the entire development, is unacceptable, the local government shall deny the change". Such determinations are stated and justified throughout the staff report. Therefore, it is the recommendation of the Director that the Planning and Zoning Board, by motion, forward a recommendation of denial to the City Commission based upon findings A-P as listed in Part IX, pages IX-5 through IX-7, as modified.

Zoning ~,::¥ i ~ 1992 City of Delray Beach 100 ~ 1st Avenue P~N~'~;~',~S Delray Beach, FL 33444 OONJ~CTION lI~ ~ BUILDE~ SOU~ D~P~ Dear David: Enclosed is our response to the Staff Repo~ prepared for the Waterford SAD/DRI amen~ent to be heard on Nove~er 16, 1992. It appears that there are some areas you are concerned about relative to the addition of the retail use to the existing SAD zoning designation for this project. Our general response to these areas are as follows: 1. Traff~ Issues. ~ile the Staff Repo~ correctly ac~owledges that. the traffic study was "prepared pursuant to the Palm Beach Co~ty Traffic Perfo~ance Standards Ordinance", it also states that the s~mitted traffic study "has not been accepted by the Director as being properly prepared". Though we ac~owledge the Director's discretion to re~ire additional info~ation which is "appropriate in order to ade~ately evaluate the development proposal' pursuant to LDR S~section 2.4.3 (I), this discretion is not ~ridled and ce~ainly is limited by applicable law. The Applicant's traffic study was prepared pursuant to the Palm Beach County Traffic Perfo~ance Standards Ordinance (TPS) and has been accepted by Palm Beach County as being prepared in accordance with and meeting the provisions of that Ordinance. The attached October 15, 1992 letter from Charles R. Walker, Jr., Acting Assistant Palm Beach County Engineer doc~ents that acceptance. ~us, the s~mitted traffic study complies with the law in ~e City and Palm Beach County. The focus of the traffic issue should be on the effect of the proposed additional use on the surrounding roadways. ~e to decreases in the Mr. David J. Kovacs November 16, 1992 Page 2 office square footage, the Waterford Place DRI will maintain the vested total daily trip generation of 10,652 trips. The A.M. peak hour traffic of the overall Waterford Place DRI will be reduced by 32% while the P.M. peak hour traffic reduction will be 21%. The project engineer, has submitted information which clearly demonstrates that Linton Boulevard and its signalized intersections have the capacity to maintain the level of service standard of Palm Beach County even with traffic from the proposed Builders Square. While traffic is the major issue, steps have been taken and the proposed additional use has been designed so as not to cause unacceptable impacts on the surrounding roadway network. 2. Cons~steno¥ with Surroundinq Uses Another Staff concern appears to be the proposed project's consistency with the surrounding land uses. The proposed retail use is clearly consistent with its surrounding uses as Delray Crossings, a Planned Commercial Development, is located to the north and to the east, 1-95 is located immediately to west of the project and an approved office use owne~ by the Applicant is located to the south of the proposed Builders Square. As the Office park is still unbuilt and controlled by Applicant, it can be designed and developed to be compatible with the surrounding uses. 3. Other waterford Plaoo DRI Cond~tions of ~pproval The Staff Report includes significant discussion of DRI conditions of approval which were not part of the Notification of Proposed Change submitted to the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council (TCRPC) or Department of Community Affairs (DCA) in conjunction with this application. While Applicant is cognizant of the need to address certain conditions of approval which will have to be met in.the near future, these time certain conditions have not yet become due and are not part of this application or approval process. Indeed, these conditions may not be considered by the City until prior review by TCRPC or DCA. Applicant has made significant pr,ogress in meeting each and every one of the Development Order conditions and will apply for modifications of those conditions which cannot be performed in a timely manner. The reality is that Applicant would be much closer to meeting several conditions of approval noted in the Staff Report but for the unnecessary delays which have occurred. The misinformation given to the Planning and Zoning Board and City Council on the DRI substantial deviation process and the use of improper DRI criteria in direct contravention of DCA policy memos has resulted in the extraordinary time frame for this approval. This application for the addition of one use to an already approved SAD was submitted in December, 1991 and will Mr. David J. Kovacs November 16, 1992 Page 3 reach the City Council approximately one year later. To put the present delays in perspective, consider that it took less time to approve the entire SAD in 1984. 4. ~mDlo_vment an~ ~ner~v Conserv&tion Issues While the Staff Report contains much discussion of energy conservation goals and the decrease in the employment potential due to the reduction in the approved office square footage, these are regional issues and are not appropriate standards of review for this addition of a use to an approved SAD. These regional issues were a part of the DRI substantial deviation determination and the reviewing agencies as dictated by Florida law determined that the proposed changes had no significant regional impact. Furthermore, the employment figures assigned to the approved office space is a theoretica~ job base which to-date has not resulted in any jobs. The addition of the Builders Square will result in real jobs and a real increase in tax base by 1993. 5. Dis~ssio~ of Delray Crossinq8 The Staff Report discusses in detail the Delray Crossing's project which accommodates several retail uses and is to the immediate north and east of the proposed Builders Square. It should be made perfectly clear that this retail project is outside the boundaries of the Waterford Place DRI and the proposed Builders Square and should have no more bearing on the approval of this use addition to the SAD than a similar retail project owned by any other developer. There was no planned interaction of the Delray Crossings with the Waterford Place DRI except for the interaction caused by the City's required abandonment of Lindell Boulevard and a portion of Germantown Road and the redesign of Waterford Place. 6. Xn&17s~s of ADDl~oat~On aS a ReSOling As clearly indicated on the Staff Report's cover page, the existing zoning of this property is Special Activities District (SAD) and the proposed zoning is SAD. There is no chan~e of zonina districts as a result of this application. As provided for by City Code, additional uses may be allowed in the SAD after review and recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Board and approval by the City Commission. The proposed addition of this retail use to the SAD will not result in an amendment to the City's Official Zoning Map and therefore is not a rezoning. In the spirit of cooperation, Applicant has provided information required for traditional rezonings. The following is a more detailed response to the particular issues raised in the Staff Report: Mr. David J. Kovacs November 16, 1992 Page 4 PART Ia. 2.(d}-ITEM BEFORE THE BOARD '(page The Staff Report states that one of the modifications, bY the applicant', is the addition of another accessway to the former hotel site, now the proposed retail site. A clarification is in order as Applicant did not request this accessway to the former hotel site. The connection from Builders Square to SW 10th Avenue was requested by TCRPC and agreed to by Applicant in order to insure that there were no additional traffic impacts. PART IB, 4 through 10-ITEM BEFORE THE.BOARD (page This section states that it has been determined that several D~I conditions of approval also need modification. As previously stated, these conditions are not relevant in this review as they were not contained in Applicant's application materials and the modifications of these conditions have not been reviewed by the applicable state and regional agencies. These conditions will be completed or modified by Applicant in a timely manner. P~RT I. authority for action. (page I-2) While Applicant agrees with the Staff Report statement that 'all findings necessary for approval of a rezoning are applicable to approval of a SAD,' Applicant takes issue with the statement that 'all findings necessary for approval of a rezoning are applicable to approval of a modification ~Q ~ SAD,' The existing zoning on this property is SAD and the proposed zoning as noted in the Staff Report is for an SAD. Applicant merely seeks to add an additional use to the existing SAD and therefore the rezoning criteria and standards are not applicable. Part II. BACK~P~OND INFORNAT~0N (pages It is inappropriate to discuss in detail the development of the Delray Crossing (aka Linton Retail Center) in the section entitled 'Brief Review of Significant Events Leading to the Current Modification.' The Delray Crossing project is not part of the Waterford Place DRI and was not developed in conjunction with or with consideration to the future development of the Waterford Place DRI. Part III. 8UBMIBBIONNATERIAL8 AND REVIEW. PROCE$8 General (page III-l) As discussed previously, Applicant agrees that the Directormay require submission of additional information~ however LDR Subsection 2.4.3(I) Mr. David J. Kovacs November 16, 1992 Page 5 clarifies that only 'necessary or appropriate information be required'. This discretion is further limited by any City or Palm Beach County laws in effect. DRI-DOMo~ification (page III-l) The Staff Report states that the proposed modification to the DRI- DO may need to be modified based upon a more complete description of the project and further review of the exiting Development Order. The application may Dot be modified to review any and all aspects of the existing Development Order other than which was previously reviewed by the state and regional agencies. Applicant will address other Development Order conditions in the near future and in a timely fashion. SAD Mo~ificat~on - Use Change (page III-l) As previously discussed, this addition of a use to the existing SAD Zoning District is not a rezoning. There is no change in the City's Official Zoning Map. Special consideration has been given by Applicant to the Director's requests for rezoning materials in order to expedite this review process which has been unnecessary delayed. SAD Mo~i£i~ation - MPD Change (page III-2) Applicant takes issue with the Director's list of submission materials and characterization that the items were agreed upon by the parties and were not provided. Applicant has provided general information on the character of the office use. Any specific discussion of the details of the office component.would be speculative at best at this point. In addition, there is no requirement that Applicant provide a feasibility and alternative use analysis of the office component. Furthermore, discussion of the energy conservation considerations and employment information for the entire DRI are inappropriate at this point in the review process, as these are regional issues. All regional issues were addressed in the substantial deviation process and the TCRPC and DCA found that the addition of a Builders Square did not significantly impact these regional elements. Finally, the Staff Report alludes to an impact of reduced 'Commerce' land use as a result of this additional use. There is no reduction in any 'Commerce' land use designation as a result of the addition of the retail use to the SAD and retail use is consistent with the allowable uses within the 'Commerce' land use designation. Site Plan for Builders Square (page III-S) The Staff Report notes that the Builders Square Site Plan was not revised to include the connecting travelway from Linde11 Boulevard to Mr. David J. Kovacs November 16, 1992 Page 6 Builders Square and is to be included as a part of the land area under consideration. It is unnecessary for the roadway parcel to be included within the site plan as the roadway is part of the whole SAD and therefore is within the land area under consideration. This travelway will be included and identified as an access parcel/tract in the plat submission. DRI-DO & SAD Condit~ons (page III-3) Once again, the Development Order conditions which were not a part of this application will be addressed by the Applicant, the appropriate regional and state agencies and the City of DelrayBeach at a later date. Part IV, PROJECT DESCRIPTION Ex~st~ng approvals (page IV-l) The Staff Report provides that ~here is no roadway connection between the Office Park and the hotel site. It should be noted that the City of Delray Beach required that this roadway connection be abandoned several years ago. Proposed Project (page IV-l} Staff's recommendation is that the allowable floor area of the office component should be further reduced due to a "miscalculation of the intensity of the new retail componentm. While Applicant has agreed to add in non-air-conditioned use areas (garden shop and lumber staging areas) and to make modifications to the traffic analysis and parking calculations, this request was recently made to Applicant after one year of review by City staff. Required ~otions (page IV-2) Applicant takes issue with Action No. i as the addition of the use to the SAD is not a rezoning consideration and with regard to Action No. 3, the DRI-DOmay not be modified to address "outstanding# conditions as identified by the Director and which were not part of this application and review process. Part V. ZONING AN~LYSIS. Future Lan~ Use Map (page V-l) Applicant agrees with the Director's determination that the addition of the retail use to the approved SAD is ~ with the "Commerce" land use category shown on the Future Land Use Map. The Director has confirmed this determination on more than on occasion. Mr. David J. Kovacs November 16, 1992 Page 7 Please refer to Applicant's discussion of Future Land Use Policy A-1.4 for a more detailed response. Concurronoy (Solid Waste) (page V-3) Attached is an analysis which shows a reduction in solid wa~$e of approximately 1,132.08 tons per year as a result of the proposed project changes. Streets and Traffic (page V-3) Attached is a detailed response from the Applicant's traffic engineer as to all traffic issues addressed in the Staff Report. CONSISTENCY Consisteno¥ with Policies of the ComDrehensive Plan Future Land Use Blement Objective &-I (page V-S) In this section of the Staff Report, the Director determined that the proposed development of this property as a retail use does not complement adjacent land uses and does not fulfill remaining land use needs. This 'Objective' is strictly subjective in nature. The proposed retail use is compatible with adjacent land uses as a separate retail project is located to the north and the east of the retail use, 1-95 is located to the west and an unbuilt office park to the south. Since the office park is controlled by Applicant, this portion of the SAD may be developed in a manner which will be consistent with the proposed retail use to the north. The Director states that there are other parcels of land which are appropriately zoned and planned for retail commercial purposes that exist and remain vacant. While this may be true, the reality is that the Builders Square representatives did not find that these retail zoned properties were appropriately located for a successful retail operation. Future Land Use PolA~v&-X.4 (page V-6) The Staff Report provides that the proposed addition of a retail use to the SAD will eliminate land designated as 'Commerce' from the City's land use inventory. As previously discussed, there is no change to the 'Commerce' land use designation of this project. The proposed commercial use is consistent with the 'Commerce' land use designation. The City's Comprehensive Plan provides in Policy A-1.4 that a 'Commerce' land use 'involves a mix of light industrial, ~ uses, and research and development.' In addition, the proposed use only changes approximately 2.5 acres from office use to retail use within the SAD. Finally, the original 811,000 square feet of office use was unrealistic Mr. David J. Kovacs November 16, 1992 Page 8 and in light of today's market conditions and future projections, this amount of office square footage could never be developed. 8ootion 3.3.2. (Standards for Rozoninq Aotions) (page V-6) As stated earlier, the standards for rezoning actions are not applicable to the addition of a use to an existing SAD. Nevertheless, these standards have been met. Contrary to the Director's position and as reflected by the information provided by the project's traffic engineer, the traffic progression along Linton Boulevard will not be adversely affected to a degree that is perceptible to traffic on Linton Boulevard. 8e0tion 2,4.5(D)(5). CRezonina Findinas) (page V-7) Applicant's position has always been that the addition of one use to an existing SAD Zoning District is not a "rezoning# as defined by the City's LDR. Applicant nevertheless made a special consideration to the Director and submitted a justification statement which supports the traditional rezoning process. Although Applicant, an experienced developer in the South Florida marketplace, concluded that due to market conditions and requirements the hotel use is not a viable alternative for this property, the Director concluded that this was not the type of "change in circumstances" which supports a rezoning. The Director's interpretation that a "change in circumstances" is only found where there is a change in the physical condition of a site or the character of adjacent properties is not supported by the City's LDR. Part VI. ANALYSIS OF THE DRX MODIFICATION REQUEST (PAGE VI-X) The Staff Report reflects that there are a few DRI-DO conditions of approval which have been identified and which should be changed during this approval process. As previously stated, any consideration of and modification to conditions of an approval which were not part of this application and which were not reviewed by the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council and the Department of Community Affairs are inappropriate at this time. Applicant will complete required conditions of approval in a timely fashion or will timely apply for modifications of such conditions. AJC:cp Enclosures Kimley-Hom and Associates, Inc. 4431 Embarcadero Drive. West Palm Beach. Florida 33407 407-845-0665 Fax 407-863-8175 MEMORANDUM TO: Mr. Allan C~lin FROM: Joseph B. Pollock, Jr., P~ FILE: 4677.01(07) DATE: November 12, 1992 RESPONSE DATE: N/A SUBJi Waterford DRI/SAD Modifications (Builders Square) As discussed, we have reviewed the staff report for the November 16, 1992 Planning and Zoning Board meeting and have prepared responses to traffic issues expressed in that report. The following are our thoughts on the traffic issues. On Page IH-l, the staff report states that the Director of the Planning and Zoning Department has not accepted the submitted traffic study since it has not been properly prepared. This statement follows at statement that the traffic study submission should be prepared pursuant to the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance. The traffic study submitted by the applicant was prepared pursuant to the Palm Beach County Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance and has been accepted by Palm Beach County as being prepared in accordance with and meeting the provisions of Palm Beach County's Traffic Performance Standards. This is documented in the October 15, 1992 letter from Charlie Walker. Thus, the submitted traffic study should be accepted by the City as being prepared pursuant to the County's Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance. On Page IV-1 and IV-2, the staff reports states that an additional reduction in the allowable office building floor area is needed to compensate for the 28,600 square feet of garden center and lumber staging area which was not addressed in the traffic study. Even though it has not been brought to our attention that the staff had a problem with this during the past year, we have revised the computations to take into account the total square footage Charlotte . DiIIii . Fort Laud·rd·la · Fort Mylrl * Les Vegal . Orange · Orlando Phoenix. Raleigh * Saraaota · Stuart * Tampa. Veto Beach. Virginia Beach, Weet Palm Beach Building client relationships since 1967 Memo/Mr. Allan Ciklin -2- November 12, 1992 of the building, garden center and lumber staging area. To do this requires going back to the trip generation study which we conducted February, 1992. The traffic counts collected for the three studied sites included all traffic associated with each site. The traffic for the buildings, garden centers and any lumber staging areas were all counted. The building square footages used in calculating the trip rates did not, however, include the garden center square footages. We have obtained the garden center square footages for each site and recalculated the trip generation rate. The three sites generated 11,111 daily trips while the total square footage increased from 261,900 square feet to 298,700 square feet when the garden centers are added. Thus, the revised trip rate is 37.198 daily trips per 1,000 square feet when the garden centers are included. Applying the revised trip rate to the total square footage of Builders Square (136,000 square feet) results is a total daily trip generation of 5,059 daily trips. Thus, the Builders Square trips would be increased from the 4,556 trips stated in the traffic report. To not increase daily trips for the overall Waterford Place DRI would require that the office space and associated trips be reduced. To maintain a total daily trip generation for the Waterford Place DRI of 10,652 requires the office trips be reduced to 3,941 trips. Converting trips to square feet results in a revised allowable office square footage of 391,956 square feet. The total peak hour trips of the overall DRI also change and they are reduced even more than previously calculated. The A.M. peak hour traffic of the overall Waterford Place DRI would be reduced by 32 percent while the P.M. peak hour traffic reduction would be 21 percent. As a consequence of revising the Builders Square trip generation to include the garden center and the lumber staging area, the allowable office square footage decreases to 391,956 square feet and the A.M. peak hour and the P.M. peak hour trip generation of the overall Waterford Place DRI are reduced by 32 percent and 21 percent, respectively. On Pages V-3 and V-4, the staff report states that the traffic study may be satisfactory for concurrency purposes but is not acceptable for local analysis and action on the SAD modification. As stated previously, the traffic report is acceptable for concurrency purposes as evidenced by the letter from Palm Beach County. We believe that the information submitted in the traffic study is adequate for the local review since that is all that Palm Beach County typically requires for their review of projects in the unincorporated portions Memo/Mr. Allan Ciklin -3- November 12, 1992 of the County. The submitted traffic study contained intersection capacity analyses which clearly demonstrate that the signalized intersections on Linton Boulevard at the 1-95 ramps, Waterford Place/Wallace Drive, and S.W. 10th Avenue all have adequate capacity to maintain the level of service standard required by Palm Beach County through the buildout of the Builders Square and for some additional years as well. Traffic engineers all generally agree that signalized intersections really control the level of service provided on an arterial roadway such as Linton Boulevard. Clearly, all four intersections analyzed are providing Level of Service "D" or better during the peak season peak hour according to Palm Beach County criteria and analysis procedures. This information was all included in the traffic study submitted in September, 1992. In an attempt to provide supplemental information to support the report already submitted, we have undertaken a more detailed analysis of the four intersections previously analyzed using the County's required procedures. The results of the more detailed intersection operational capacity analyses using the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual procedures indicates that Level of Service "D' or better is maintained at all four intersections during the peak season peak hour with full traffic from the Builders Square. The detailed operational analysis sheets are attached. Thus, the originally submitted traffic report clearly demonstrates that Linton Boulevard and its signalized intersections have the capacity to maintain the level of service standard of Palm Beach County even with traffic from the proposed Builders Square. The supplemental information attached to this memorandum provides additional information which supports that previous conclusion. More specifically, the intersection of Waterford Place and Linton Boulevard has sufficient capacity to accommodate traffic from full occupancy and development of the Delray Crossing/Linton Retail shopping centers and Builders Square. On Page V-4, the staff report indicates that it is anticipated that the northbound left-turn queue on Waterford Place at the Linton Boulevard intersection will back up or "fail" given current signal timing and sequencing. As traffic volumes increase even without Builders Square, the traffic signal timing and sequence will need to be modified. Even though the intersection has the capacity to accommodate the northbound left-turn demand with a single lane, it is logical to use dual northbound left-turn lanes since the lane is already provided but just not used today. We have undertaken a SOAP analysis of the intersection to Memo/Mr. Allan Ciklin -4- November 12, 1992 determine the most efficient signal operation sequence for the intersection with two northbound left-mm lanes. The SOAP analysis is the technique used by the Florida Department of Transportation to determine the most efficient signal sequence for an intersection. The SOAP analysis indicates that the most efficient operation is an exclusive left-mm signal phase with overlaps for the north-south traffic movements. The attached SOAP reports indicate the most efficient signal operation and also indicates that the available green time to Linton Boulevard is only reduced by 1.7 percent with dual northbound left-mm lanes and the associated signal phasing phases even with Builders Square traffic added. Thus, the traffic progression along Linton Boulevard will not be adversely affected to a degree that is perceptible to traffic on Linton Boulevard, On Page V-5, the staff report indicates that the traffic volume projections for the intersection of Waterford Place and Linton Boulevard is flawed because the traffic study does not correctly address additional traffic from unoccupied or unbuilt portions of the Delray Crossing shopping center. The traffic study was in fact prepared in the manner suggested by staff relative to additional traffic from Delray Crossing. During March, 1992 when Palm Beach County made their turning movement counts at the intersection of Linton Boulevard and Waterford Place, approximately 31 percent of the approved total square footage of Delray Crossing and the Linton Retail shopping centers was either unoccupied or unbuilt. We increased the traffic movements into and out of Waterford Place by 33 percent to account for that unoccupied and unbuilt space. After the 33 percent increase was made, the Builders Square traffic was added to obtain the total traffic volumes contained in the original traffic study. The fact that the traffic study for the Delray Crossing anticipated a higher northbound left-turn should not be a cause for great alarm since the real world traffic movements into and out of Delray Crossing (and Linton Retail) have been used in the analysis for Builders Square. Thus, the traffic analysis of the intersection of Waterford Place and Linton Boulevard is not flawed as suggested by staff and the intersection will not fail and cause traffic to divert to S.W. 10th Avenue as suggested by staff.. Memo/Mr. Allan Ciklin -5- November 12, 1992 On Page VI-3, the staff report indicates Condition 18A of the Development Order requires that a second northbound left-mm lane be constructed on S.W. 10th Avenue at Linton Boulevard. The engineering drawings for construction have been approved by the City and the developer is waiting on the necessary permit from Palm Beach County before commencing construction. Once the permits are in hand, construction will commence immediately and should be completed in January, 1993 at the latest. On Page VI-3, the staff report indicates that a traffic study of the 1-95/Linton Boulevard on- ramps is required by the Development Order and that the applicant has not even contacted the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOr) about the study. The applicant's traffic engineer has in fact initiated the study and met with FDOT staff on October 27, 1992 to discuss the study methodology, obtain data and gain their input prior to completing the effort. The study was submitted to FDOT on November 13, 1992 and the applicant looks for a determination by FDOT by December 31, 1992. On Pages VI-5 and VI-6, the staff report indicates that the widening of S.W. 10th Avenue to four lanes from Linton Boulevard to Lindell Boulevard should be constructed now as required in Condition 22 of the Development Order since the traffic study was not prepared in accordance with Palm Beach County's Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance. As stated previously, the traffic report demonstrates that the Builders Square meets the County's Traffic Performance Standards. Clearly, the traffic counts on S.W. loth Avenue at the Linton Boulevard intersection and at Lindell Boulevard indicate that the traffic volumes on S.W. 10th Avenue do not require four lanes. The intersection turning movement traffic counts completed by Palm Beach County at the intersection of Linton Boulevard and S.W. 10th Avenue very closely match the City's traffic count on Lindell Boulevard just east of S.W. 10th Avenue as well as the Kimley-Horn turning movement count at the intersection of S.W. 10th Avenue and Lindell Boulevard. Based upon this, the traffic volomes on S.W. 10th Avenue at Linton Boulevard and at Lindell Boulevard do not vary much and as a consequence, do not indicate a need for four lanes. The stacking of traffic within l.inton International Plaza from its driveway onto S.W. 10th Avenue due to queuing of northbound traffic on S.W. 10th Avenue will be alleviated by the provision of the Memo/Mr. Allan Cildin -6- November 12, 1992 second northbound left-turn lane on S.W. 10th Avenue at Linton Boulevard. With the turn lane improvements on S.W. 10th Avenue to be constructed by the applicant, $.W. 10th Avenue will have the same number of northbound traffic lanes as it will have when the roadway is four-laned between l.inton Boulevard and Lindeil Boulevards. Thus, the four- lane improvement of $.W. 10th Avenue is not needed for existing or existing plus Builders Square traffic since Builders Square should add no more than 1,000 vehicle trips to S.W. 10th Avenue between Linton and Lindell Boulevards. On Page VI-5, the staff report indicates that the applicant stated that the total trip generation does not change with Builders Square and that there was no change in impacts. Kimley-H0rn and Associates, Inc. has never said that the traffic loadings at points where Builders Square traffic loads out onto the Thoroughfare Plan roadway system are the same as that of the approved DRI and its land uses. Obviously, the traffic loadings at some points is different. What we have said is that the total DRI traffic volumes (with Builders Square) on Linton Boulevard, S.W. loth Avenue and Lindell Boulevard are either the same or have been reduced on a daily traffic basis. Clearly these roadway swill experience a reduction in total DRI traffic during the A.M. and P.M. peak hours. Further, the Redistribution of Traffic section of Palm Beach County's Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance has been addressed in the traffic study and has been accepted by Palm Beach County. Thus, the Traffic Performance Standards Ordinance has been addressed satisfactorily as it relates to S.W. loth Avenue. We agree that S.W. loth Avenue will most probably need four lanes between Linton Boulevard and Lindell Boulevard as development of the office buildings occur in the future. On Page VII-2, the staff report discusses the East Accessway design standards. Traffic volumes associated with that access connection with Builders Square in place have been provided to the City. With that information, it is clear that the access will serve very low traffic volumes and that a high type roadway design is not necessary. Proper traffic control and warning signage can be installed such that the access can function adequately and safely. As acknowledged previously, the layout and/or location of the connection may need to change when the office park site plan becomes more definitive. Thus, the East Accessway Memo/Mr. Allan Ciklin -7- November 12, 1992 can function adequately and safely with proper traffic control warning signage without being designed as a high type roadway. On Page VII-6, the staff report recommends that the applicant submit parking data from comparable sites to address the need for the number of spaces to be provided at this Builders Square. The applicant will undertake such a collection of data for use in resolving this issue.
